Hand Luggage Beauty

12:00 Unknown 0 Comments


So last week I went away on holiday and so I thought I would share what beauty products accompany me on the plane. The holiday season is beginning so it might give you some ideas for what to take. 

Everything in my hand luggage...



Cleansing wipes for removing make up and general dirt that builds up, first step when you get on the plane. Then throughout any flight I go on I moisturise with my Clinque Thirst Relief and keep my lips soft with my Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream.


Essential for going through airports and flying - hand sanitizer. Then to keep hands happy a small tube of hand cream from L'occitane, followed by perfume to help you feel fresh after long days spent travelling.


I hope you enjoyed this post, keep your eyes peeled as I made a few duty free purchases that I will do a post on for you.

Thank you for reading, pop back every Monday and Friday for new beauty and fashion posts.

Bourjois Rouge Edition Aqua Laque

12:00 Unknown 0 Comments


On a recent trip to Boots I picked this up after having loved the matte velvet sister to the new aqua laque. 

Read on to see what I thought...

Bourjois Rouge Edition Aqua Laque - 04 Viens Si Tu Roses

I found this lip product to be absolutely amazing, which is a bold statement for a lipstick lover like myself. The 'laque' goes on very glossy allowing it to form a beautiful even layer of colour over the lips but as it begins to dry it forms more of a gel texture which holds on to the lips for ages without looking patchy or dry. 

The raspberry pink colour that I went for is a really lovely look for me, being a summery pink but still dark enough to make an impact - which I love from my lip looks.


I would definitely recommend this to anyone, perfect lip product for summer and a good range of nudes, pinks and reds to pick from.


Thank you for reading this post, I hope you enjoyed it. Leave me comment below with any thoughts of suggestions - I would love to read them.

Free Your Mind - Birchbox May 2015

19:01 Unknown 0 Comments


So you may have seen that I've been getting into subscription boxes in the last few months so today I'm going to share my most recent Birchbox. 

Find out what was inside...





This box was super cute, I loved the idea of creating your own design and the products inside were all things I'd like to try but would probably never go out and buy myself. 

If they are good you may see them on the blog in the future!


Thank you for reading, hope you enjoyed this post. Don't forget to share the post if you liked it and follow for more!

The Body Shop Haul

12:35 Unknown 4 Comments


I have never been that big of a fan of The Body Shop, however recently I have seen so many people rave about some of their products and so I thought I would put an order in and see what all the hype was about!

See what I got...



Camomile Silky Cleansing Oil
You may have seen my post about the camomile cleansing butter, this is the oil version of that product - obviously a much more oily texture but a little bit cheaper so I thought I'd give it a go to compare. Having tried it out it is really good, removes make-up without any problems, very similarly to its sibling product.

Blue Corn 3-in-1 Deep Cleasning Mask
This mask was on their site as one of their best sellers so I gave it a go, and I can seriously see why so many people love it - its amazing! A little goes a really long way and when you take it off your skin has had a complete overhaul and feels as good as new, but not stripped. I can see this becoming a new favourite mask.

Vitamin E Face Mist
I bought this as I have heard a lot of people using it as a primer and setting spray for make up, and its actually surprisingly good at holding make up in place all day. Plus, I go on holiday next week and I think it will be a refreshing spritz during the day. 

Peppermint Smoothing Pumice Foot Scrub
I bought this for holiday prep for my feet after the cold winter has left them in not the best condition. The texture of this product is like nothing else, like a jelly but once you begin to rub it onto your feet you get the scrub as well as a soft foamy feel. The smell is amazing, if you like mint that is. And so far so good, it is helping my feet in the right direction.


And that's everything! I made sure to try everything for this post so I could give you a little review of each of the products as well. I hope you enjoyed it.

Thank you for reading, make sure to check out my other posts - I have recently posted my first fashion post...

Perfect Summer Nails

09:17 Unknown 0 Comments


As soon as the days start getting longer, weather gets warmer and the sun decides to show its face a little more I get very excited to get the summer colours on to my nails. 

Here are my favourite colours for the perfect summer nails...


I love to go for a mix of pastels and brights, and I've even thrown a nude in to my favourites as sometimes when you are rocking the colour in your outfits you don't need it on your nails. 

Left to Right: Revlon Colourstay Gel Envy in Checkmate, No7 Stay Perfect in Lucky Lilac, Lola Barcelona Polish in Rambla (Exclusive to Birchbox), Maybelline Super Stay Gel Nail Colour in Forevermore Green, Clinique Different Nail Enamel, Rimmel 60 Second Super Shine in Pillow Talk, No7 Speed Dry in Poolside Blue.


I just think even looking at these colours makes you feel like summer has arrived so having them on your nails brightens up your day just a little!
